Bilge pump

I have an 02 Sundeck 237. Last week while hanging out with the bow of the boat up on the beach, we noticed every so often the bilge would pump a good amount of water out the side. Is it normal to be getting that much water in? or do I possibly have a hose or something leaking that's allowing water in? Thanks!

    Best way to check is to put the boat on its trailer, raise the bow as high as you can while still keep the boat stabilized (usually raising the front wheel/jack to it's highest position is enough).  Remove the drain plug to help make sure you have everything drained out.  Put the boat back in the water and keep it moored at the dock, then monitor the bilge area to see if there is water intrusion.
